However, RiscOS is more than just a kernel, and all the software avaliable for Linux covering these things gets bigger and more resource hungry every day, especially if you want to use all the fancy stuff like Gnome/KDE and so on.Anyway, cut down systems can work pretty well with such a config, not to talk about specific embedded GUI systems like Qtopia (= QT/Embedded) to allow still for some gfx display if that is necessary.However, I doubt you will be able to get all that what RiscOS offers (more or less) into about the same space using Linux. Anyway, RiscOS boxes take a bit for booting as well, no real RiscOS user runs it mint’.
